STILL BIRTH - NAME AND BURIAL

Would like to know where my still birth brother is buried in Sheffield and his name if possible. He was 8 months and still born at Jessop Hospital in 1960. My mother nearly died at the time and she was admitted as an emergency.

Edna and Ernest Bradburn - 12 Haugh Lane Sheffield S11 9SA - my father attended the funeral but he is now dead.

Find Similar in Same Grave Same Household if Available Surname Match if Available

If you go to the burial records and click "Find Similar in Same Grave" you will find others recorded with this location.

https://www.freebmd.org.uk/ has birth / death indexes from this era. I can't see a match there.

You can see there were 2 other still-borns and a 1 day on that day from Womens Hospital, with the same grave number.

Sad.
